Jorge LascarによってThe Dead Sea and Judean Desert at dusk with Jordan on the background

The Dead Sea, also called the Salt Sea, is a salt lake bordering Jordan to the east, and Israel and Palestine to the west. Its surface and shores are 427 metres (1,401 ft) below sea level, Earth's lowest elevation on land. The Dead Sea is 306 m (1,004 ft) deep, the deepest hypersaline lake in the world. With 34.2% salinity (in 2011), it is also one of the world's saltiest bodies of water, though Lake Vanda Antarctica (35%), Lake Assal (Djibouti) (34.8%), Lagoon Garabogazköl in the Caspian Sea (up to 35%) and some hypersaline ponds and lakes of the McMurdo Dry Valleys in Antarctica (such as Don Juan Pond (44%)) have reported higher salinities. It is 9.6 times as salty as the ocean. This salinity makes for a harsh environment in which animals cannot flourish, hence its name. The Dead Sea is 50 kilometres (31 mi) long and 15 kilometres (9 mi) wide at its widest point.[1] It lies in the Jordan Rift Valley, and its main tributary is the Jordan River. The Dead Sea has attracted visitors from around the Mediterranean basin for thousands of years. Biblically, it was a place of refuge for King David. It was one of the world's first health resorts (for Herod the Great), and it has been the supplier of a wide variety of products, from balms for Egyptian mummification to potash for fertilizers. People also use the salt and the minerals from the Dead Sea to create cosmetics and herbal sachets. The Dead Sea seawater has a density of 1.240 kg/L, which makes swimming similar to floating [Wikipedia.org]
バンダ湖は南極大陸 ロス海属領 ヴィクトリアランド ライト谷にある湖沼である。この湖は 5 キロメートルの長さがあり、最大深度は 69 メートルである。 1968年から1995年までの間、ニュージーランドが湖岸にバンダ基地を設置していた。バンダ湖は、海水の 10 倍以上の濃度の塩分を持つ塩湖であり、これは死海の塩分濃度より高く、世界で最も塩分濃度が高いといわれるジブチのアッサル湖よりもさらに高い可能性が高い。この湖は、深部の水がより浅い水域の水と混合しない部分循環湖でもある。夏季においても3メー... さらに読みます
